That fella is really too much dragging the chair

Thinking of reporting this to the management office

What do you think is the remedy?

Any rules?

The fella is a renter tenant upstairs.

Drag chair also wanna complain?

k can solv

Step 1 - politely advise, tell him nicely that its disturbing you downstairs.
Step 2 - still happens, advise 2nd time, offer him a solution, or better yet give/volunteer him the solution
Step 3 - if still happens regularly, report ahead.
All tenancy agreements , im pretty sure says do not disturb other residents nearby.

if management is not taking action, report to tribunal and if you wanna get really serious, hire a lawyer and pursue a course of action towards management negligence.

if im not wrong, its this tribunal..(im not so sure)

*ps makesure u have record some sort of proof that you have advised beforehand. trust me, it will help you.

Why does your neighbour drag chairs ? Is there a need to do that often ? In my house, I dont even remember the last time a chair is dragged. At most move the dining chairs when mopping the floor but that too very little noise.

I use to have a Neighbour upstairs that had a furniture business. Everyday can hear noise of chainsaw or hammering. Whole condo reported, in the end still no action. We moved out. Good luck my friend, hope you have better results.

draging chairs,marbles.....sometimes they say its something else...

Is it they drag chair/table at midnight? or playing guli or syilling rolling rolling on the floor?

ppl say its hantu

I am not sure whether this is famous practice or not in Malaysia.

But in China, where people mostly stays in condo in big cities.
They got this "shake floor machine" whenever upstairs is too noisy, just turn it on and let the vibration kicks in through the wall and annoy them.

Look for 镇楼器 in taobao

Good tool but my condo unit got plaster ceiling... don't want to spoil my ceiling

hold your horses TS.

google water hammer instead of blaming your neighbors.

What time he moves his chair? If tengah malam, its not him. Better call bomoh/shaman

i got neighbor that every night listen to tv until other floor also hear it
dang it

Wow this is insanely valuable.

Can it be connected via wifi or handphone.

So while I am at work, I can call the machine to shake floor to jolt the upstairs ?

I don't get you guys

why do plaster ceiling?

Just make your unit feel a bit compress.

look nice only but who is gonna go in see your bed room? if you do for all rooms.

no idea.

dining room chair ? bar stool ?

According to some of the product description it does support smartphone apps and remote control.

Not sure the remote includes via internet like my Dyson fan or not.

first thing to do is report to your local jmb

nice info tq

Luckily my unit has higher ceiling to floor height. I won't feel compressed while living inside.

Meanwhile, plaster ceiling also help concealing pipes that protrude from the actual ceiling and reduce some noise.
Unfortunately it cannot reduce those noise made by stupid neighbor above.

tipu, you the hantu

yeah

sometime when you end up with a stupid neighbor above, really makes one feel like the condo is something one only want to live there temporary.

next time I must buy top floor unit.

or save up enough money to buy a single storey house in PJ and renovate it.

Top floor unit also got problem... heavy downpour + poor workmanship of constructor = gonna spend a lot of time to deal with management to fix your roof, wall, watermarks and etc

Buy the chair leg cover for him, a few ringgit only. Say you kecian his floor kena scratch.

Talk properly first. If neighbour refuse to listen, fight fire with fire. Revenge with this gadget: ceiling thumper/building shaker

If you had the budget, you can put acoustic dampening material within the plaster ceiling also.

I have done this as sound proofing for my office at home.

I had thought of that also. But remember the sound also travels around the wall (not just ceiling). So, I might just file an official complaint rather than wasting money

Well. It will help. It won't be 100% unless you willing to spend some real moolah.

Or heck, just get landed properly with land at the sides. Silence.

Until some neighbour's kid who has zero musical aptitude try his hand at the piano, or even worst, fucking drums.

Lord have mercy on thy soul..

Lmao. Fucked either way T_T

Dunno if it is good idea

what if he get offended and do even more?

You r right

I wouldn't waste my money on sound dampening, otherwise I have to rebuild a soundproof "music studio" in my bed room.

this is good but I wouldn;t want to go that far, just want to send the message

If only this device is attach to a smartphone and thumps only when I call it at office.

You see if you fight fire with fire, it doesn't send out the message that his chair dragging is noisy, you just end up sending another message.


And that gadget...it appears you have to drill holes on your ceiling. I wouldn't want to do that.

Landed should be MUCH MUCH better than condo/flat.

But again, you know in KL, Penang, JB... those kiasu buggers like to park very near to your gate due to 1 family own 3 or more cars. Some like to use their garbage bin and stone to "reserve" their parking spot

Same old shitty neighbor problem

put inside post box, write a message if you want

say from “secret admirer” lul

My friend once bought the chair sticker thingy
U know the soft soft thingy to protect ur chair leg one
U put at bottom of the chair so when they drag it wont make a sound

She offered that to the neighbors upstairs and needless to say they feel offended and unhappy
But since then the dragging chair noise stopped

Your upstair neighbors probably don't know their action created such noise...
It's ok to let them know, in a civilized manner.

post his fb here. what else. we shame him

great idea

but how did you friend managed to catch the upstair neighbour as they were going out ?

I have to knock on the fella door.

Should I leave it at that fella's door with a message ?

I plan to put in a transparent back with a message and hang it on the fella door.

is the unit upstairs occupied?

When u hear them dragging on top that's when u should go and knock...
Talk in a friendly manner.
Alot of them are not aware that their dragging noise is disturbing to others.

Lose Lose to you.
Bear with it and eventually you will get immune to it.
Really.

Problem is eveytime that happens i am bathing in the toilet

then i really hope u buy the ceiling shaker to teach them a lesson and report to us ur experience. the look on their face is priceless when they complain to u. i saw 1 model that u can switch it on without affecting u. no noise on ur side.

Do I have to screw it on my ceiling

It will appear 2 holes on my ceiling

Actually I more prefer it to be activated by hand phone

dont need, got 1 type is like supported by pole 1. just keep extending until it reach the ceiling.
and got extra function like, u can set on and off time

Can buy from taobao deliver to here ?

I have one neighbour that stay upstair and will go crazy and running/stomping hardcore during night around 1am.
One time the guy staying downstair come to my unit and ask me to stop making loud noise, I told him it was come from above.
Not sure what's the issue of the noise maker my best bet is some kid with ADHD, anyway I'm moving out soon to the highest floor.

Yeah mine too 2 floors above me

my case, i always hear someone scratching the floor the unit above me, during midnight. but i'm assume MAYBE they have a dog, some dogs have habit scratching floor when they are bored.

Well, i'm used to be a dog owner, so i just bear with it. I dont care about the owner, but i dont want to cause trouble to the dog. Later complain, the one suffered is the poor animal
